Rua de Costa Cabral, n.º 750, Paranhos, Porto.
Residential building designed in 1953 by Viana de Lima, based on innovative ideas of modern architecture.
The building is set back from the street and has a striking marquee at the entrance. The balconies and the use of brick and glass on the facade stand out.
Influenced by the principles of Le Corbusier, with a focus on functionality and the practical distribution of apartments through an internal gallery.
Monument of Public Interest since 2013, due to its architectural importance.
It was part of a larger project that envisioned other blocks, but this was the only one built.
